Re: Question About Feeding GSP's
Thanks for the reply's! The 55G currently has four dead shrimp and it smells horrible, so i'm thinking I should wait for it to finish cycling? The nitrites stalled so I did a 50% PWC 2 days ago, and I'm hoping it'll jump start and finish this cycle.

Re: Question About Feeding GSP's
Do a 100% WC & add all the substrate, decor & filters from the 10g to it. The puffer will be fine in there.

Puffers they have 3 of them in the 10 gallon. I would listen to PP and move them all over.Pufferpunk wrote: The puffer will be fine in there.

Yep, anything with a shell is good. Freeze them & defrost in warm vitamin water.

Hi I.Puff.Too did you get your 3 GSP's moved over to the 55G yet?

Re: Question About Feeding GSP's
Trek, not yet, I'm thinking the 55G is almost done with it's cycle, the nitrites sky-rocketed and the nitrates went up as well, so I'm thinking I'll let it finish. The puffers are less than two inches so I don't think a couple more days will hurt them. They are bright green, pure white stomachs, healthy as can be in about
SG 1.015. They are just bored in such a small tank! I hope they still get along in the 55 and don't fight for territory.
